I Don'T Want To

I don't fall in love, I said to you But then, what am I supposed to do? When the past taught me things forseen When Love showed me events never to be unseen. I was afraid to fall and break. But now I had, and for new chances, I wouldn't dare make For falling is easy, and trusting is my doubt Drums roll and lingering suspense takes place in my bout Falling in love did hurt me all the time And made me realize how foolish it was, to waste a tithe For you or any girl waiting for my sweet hand for them to take For happiness never lasts, for experiences pile up my hate Falling in Love is not scary, it's destroying, as you can't see I wouldn't worry, for I'll turn a blind eye away your innocent offering To show me affection, to then give me all the blame Of the consequences in the nigh, in the drastic choices you'd make. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reply to: http://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/how_to_fall_in_love_604459
